CHAPTER 151

With that she turned away and heaved a sigh before taking the first step and the next away from the car, her milk dress still floating behind her, making her look like a simple beautiful flower in the dark night.

Even at that, Ye Cheng did not say anything neither he come down from the car nor did he let the driver move.

Taking each step forward, one at a time, Li Jing ceased her breathing and kept on walking, moving forward till she got to half of her journey and then she heard the sound of the door slammed shut.

THUD!

Her heart skipped a bit but she did nit stop and willed herself to take the next step forward and she did.

By the time she took the third step forward she felt a hand hold her arm and her eyes fluttered close.

She waited for a second and it came. He turned her around swiftly so she was facing him but her eyes remained fixed where they were, on his chest, not daring to look up at him.

He inhaled deeply, taking in her scent with the evening breeze and letting his eyes shut close then he pried them open again.

It was as though he was preparing himself for what he was about to do and at the same time, it felt like he could not get enough and just wanted to enjoy her smell for as long as he could.

He looked down at her and because of their height difference Li Jing would have to strain her neck to see him that was one of the reasons she failed to look at him even till that time.

A small smile spread across Ye Cheng’s lips but they vanished when he noticed she refused too look at him.

Was she mad at him now or what?

He hooked a finger underneath her chin and lifted it up, raising her face with it so she could see him.

As if on cue, Li Jing closed her eyes instead. She was not ready to look into those eyes now. She felt hurt that he had ignored her that way but a part of her still rejoiced that he came down to meet her afterwards though.

Regardless, she just was not ready. "Open your eyes Li Jing."

She still refused to and let the cool wind blow on her face and neck instead but due to his height hovering over her, he was virtually blocking her enjoyment.

"Look at me or I’ll kiss you." Instantly her eyes flew open. She was not ready to get entangled with him. No. Not yet.

His kind of person had people on the watch and look out for him. She did not want another scandalous news running around, so she obeyed instead.

"Finally. I thought you would still be stubborn not to. Look." He brought his left hand upwards towards her chest and he darted his gaze towards it.

Following his lead, Li Jing looked down as well and her eyes locked with a small dark blue box. Rather than feel excited in anticipation, Li Jing arched a brow at him questioningly.

"Here, your gift. I was going to give it to you tonight outside the garden but that was ruined." Ye Cheng explained to her. "Go ahead, open it."

"You shouldn’t have."

"I should. It is my thank you gift for honoring my invitation and looking exceptionally stunning tonight." He was such a sweet talker.

"Fine. Thanks." She picked it up from his hand and did not open it and stared at him as though asking of there was something else.

"Wouldn’t you open it?" Ye Cheng asked. He was expecting her to have been joyed and open the gift quickly. At least that was what Bai Qing Mei did whenever he bought her a gift.

Unfortunately for him, Li Jing was not like that. She wasn’t so keen on these things and not because she had them not would she be so enthusiastic about it.

It was just that she cherished whatever she had no matter how low, small or cheap it was. It was the thought that counted and mattered most to her not its quality.

"I don’t want to."

"Why?"

"It is my gift. I would decide when to open it and where."

"Okay, do whatever you want. I won’t argue."

"Hmm."

Both of them stayed in that position awkwardly staring at each other and nit being able to say anything more. After all the atmosphere was dense prior and now that he had given her the gift, there was nothing else.

Or so Li Jing thought. She thought he had come down because he felt what he did to her was bad but he just came to present a gift to her and nothing else.

How sad.

Two minutes passed and both of them were still in that position. Li Jing’s neck had started to strain and it was inconveniencing. If he did nit have anything to say, then se would just leave and go have a nice rest.

She still had to go to work the next morning and so did he.

Clearing er throat, she spoke. "Hmm." Ye Cheng blinked, bringing his attention back to her. "I... Umm, I should be going now. Thanks once again." She lifted the small dark blue box up, indicating what her thanks was for again before pulling back from his arms and getting ready to leave him.

"Uh... Umm okay. Welcome." They both knew he was fighting within himself to get what he wanted to say out but he just couldn’t.

Seeing his difficulty, Li Jing smiled and took a step closer to him, standing on her toe, she brought her face closer to his.

At the same time, Ye Cheng followed after her and brought his face closer to hers. She just gave him the boost he wanted. Thinking she was leaning in for a kiss, he closed his eyes briefly as their faces were just a inch apart but it never came.

Rather he felt her warm breathe tickle his skin near his nape and as his eyes flew open.
